That's precisely my point though. If you're not either the one implementing the change, or paying for the change to be made by somebody else, you don't get to make the decisions. As far as GNOME goes, it's not my fault that it's nearly unusable out of box, to the extent that, at work, we immediately (okay, after a week or so) manually compiled KDE for our RHEL8 systems, and just installed the packages for RHEL7 and RHEL6 systems. In RHEL6 it wasn't too bad, so we still kept it around as an *additional* option for users there. That isn't really relevant to this thread, of course. -- John M.
